Data Sharing Methods

Face-to-face meetings

Data Summary80% of the students were able to answer 60% of the assessment questions which were on average more difficult than those on the State Licensing examination, so more than 80% of students should obtain passing scores (score 60% or better) on the the State Licensing exam.
Analysis SummaryGrades of 60% correct on examinations indicate outcome achievement.
